Documentary Competition 2010: Piombo fuso

“As I neared Gaza I started to think about the shots that had been shown on television since the beginning of the attacks. Rubble, dead and wounded people, the same pictures, endlessly out of context, spread over news broadcasts, reflecting a mute, dull, incomprehensible horror. I then crossed the border. That feeling of bewilderment disappeared as I began to get my bearings, taking one look at a time, amongst the places, the tempos, the faces of a country at war.” (Stefano Savona)
